Picardy Pinot Noir 2021

At once pretty, haunting and deep. Intense aromas of tangy red fruits, dark cherry, rhubarb, spiced plum, geranium and cassis. Very deep layered flavours, pure, precise, the fruit buoyed by fine purring tannins, subtle oak and abundant natural acidity. So long in the mouth, supple, the flavours mouthcoating, rich and ripe yet bright and invigorating. Light and shade, lavish, yet discreet, elegant, but with persistent gripping power. Transfixing Pinot Noir from a great site and great producer. Waters Wine Co

The first wine produced at Picardy was the 1996 Pinot Noir. Picardy Pinots exhibit finesse and complexity, inspired by the great Pinot Noir wines of the old world. Excellent fruit intensity, structure, pH to acid relationship and fine-grained tannins guarantee long life and excellent bottle development. The wines are also very approachable in their early years.
